Thunderheart Bison’s Small Zipper Pouch is leather and suede lined. Beyond just functional, it’s aesthetically pleasing and – bonus points – makes me feel rustic, like I’m not the type of girl that would use a silly term like “inside-bag bag.”

My pouch will be full of doodles, notes and the many small paper-y things that get crumpled and in the way of what I’m actually trying to fetch. Of course, it also works to house more traditional items like pins, cards and lip-gloss.
